It does not look like it was designed for salespeople

May 22nd, 2023 • Role: End User

Learned it as a salesman, way, way too many things to do to enter a bid or order. It does not look like it was designed for salespeople.

Pros

It produces clear, easy to read Bids, quotes and purchase agreements.

Cons

Very, very user-friendly. Zero intuitive, complicated, poor training, lots and lots of icons that aren't needed by any particular group. Difficult to navigate as a salesperson.

Slow, buggy with poor design and implementation

July 21st, 2021 • Roles: Purchaser & End User

Slow, buggy with poor design and implementation

Pros

It has a lot of features that can be somewhat figured out by more advanced users.

Cons

Like I said, it has a lot of features but their implementation is often done poorly and lazily. The design is confusing and counterintuitive. It's slow and freezes up often which is the last thing you need with a customer in front of you. All in all, it only seems to be getting worse.
